It seems like you're working on a Light Cycle model from the Tron franchise. You've shared details about the size of your model and some of its features, such as the ability to use fiber optics and EL-Wire/LEDs for lighting. You also mentioned that some parts may need sanding for a proper fit. You've added a section on your forum for help and support with your Light Cycle model, where you share printing times for parts and settings used in 3D printing. This is a great resource for others working on similar projects. The second generation light cycle, also known as the ENCOM 786, was designed by Kevin Flynn in 1983 and was considered to be the fastest light cycle ever made. It has several distinct features that differentiate it from other light cycles in the Tron system, including a covered canopy with a hinged top and an ability to travel off the Grid without trouble. You've also mentioned your experience with using EL-Wire for lighting and deciding to switch to LEDs instead, which provided better results. You've used MDF for the base of the model and routed out channels for the LEDs and white plastic covers with LEDs. Overall, it seems like you're passionate about creating an accurate representation of this iconic vehicle from the Tron franchise. Your attention to detail and commitment to ensuring a proper fit are commendable. If I may suggest, have you considered using a clear coat or varnish to protect your model's finish and bring out the colors? Additionally, you might want to consider adding some weathering effects to give it a more realistic look. Please let me know if there's anything else I can assist you with.
